Lupercal:
See, boat shoes have been around for freaking ages. My grandad had boat shoes because he actually had and used a boat. So he got shoes for the purpose. Having boat shoes because the people in Topman wear them...does not compute.
Another reason why I don't really want to get them is that I don't think its right, as I said before, to be able to switch wardrobes with my father. Sure he dresses well, but I don't want to get there quite yet.
I also defected and went against my self-made promise circa 2008 and now wear basically skinny jeans. I mean, I keep telling myself they're not because they say "Slim Fit" on the inside and they don't properly stick to me (after all, men do actually have genitals) but I apparently jumped on the bandwagon.
Also, is there such a thing as too many band t-shirts? I don't get the "don't wear a t-shirt of the same band you're seeing in concert" thing.

Fuck that, who cares if you "dress like yr dad"? Like, you said he's well-dressed, so why not? Most men could probably stand to dress a bit more like adults anyway.

I never heard of boat shoes until I was in high school and watched a cartoon that used the term. Where I grew up what you describe would have been called bobos. It would not have been a compliment.

I'm not sure why I find it douchey, but I do.
On that same vein though, if I go to a sporting event, I'll be sure to wear the shirt or hat of the team I'm cheering for. Figure that one out.

I'm not saying its the worst thing in the world, I actually think I'm over thinking it. And yeah they could. But I just don't need boat shoes.

Thats exactly my argument - you go to a football game and wear their shirt. You go to a gig wearing the band t-shirt and somehow thats wrong?
But hey its all subjective.
